Hi,

I wonder if anybody was ever able to start a Nokia UltraSite with
OpenBSC?

In a nut shell: OML link is up and running, TRX1 is successfully loaded
software, configured, and now it is stuck in "Waiting for LAPD..."
state.

The problem is that OpenBSC initiates the RSLSIG link for this TRX,
but it seems the BTS is never answering to that:

I set the correct E1 TS for TRX1 RSLSIG in Traffic manager, and double
checked the RSLSIG config parameters on both end (OpenBSC config file and the BTS
manager).

Nokia Insite and MetroSite uses RSL TEI = 1 for the first TRX. Maybe
Ultra uses other TEI number for the first TRX, this is something I
will try, but otherwise I don't know how it is possible that not even
the LAPD connection is being established...

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Csaba
